TikTok Software Engineer interview questions

The recruiter was friendly and easy to talk to. We covered two technical questions—both fairly standard—and one behavioral. Overall, it was a smooth and pleasant screening experience. We walked through each of the questions and then I went through my potential solution and started coding. After I was done, we walked through my code again before submitting.

The interview process consists of 4 rounds. Only the first two rounds are technical. First asked details about projects described in the resume. Then a typical algorithm coding question lasting about 40 mins. The general process is more succinct compared to traditional 6 rounds technical interview process.
